House Intelligence Chair Criticizes Senator Sanders Over AI Safety Meeting With Chinese Experts

Senator Bernie Sanders is organizing a meeting between American and Chinese scientists to discuss the risks of artificial intelligence. Sanders argued that AI developers might lose control over the technology they are building. He cited concerns from former industry insiders who say companies are creating machines that could eventually outperform humans in every way. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rick Crawford strongly opposed the meeting. Crawford called Sanders a threat to national security because the event includes experts from China. The dispute shows a deep divide in Congress over how to handle international cooperation on AI safety.
